The Kut announce massive 37-date July / August tour in support of ‘Bad Man’ single release (out 1st July) (Criminal Records)

Q Magazine

Top 5 Tracks To Listen to This Week

"There's
a slice of angst-offloading gutter rock that's a kissing cousin of
Hole, but The Kut's scuzz-covered family tree also stretches further
back to the garage rampages of The Stooges.”

Kerrang! Magazine

"Despite the loud Courtney love references they're more than just Hole II"

Metal Hammer

"The Kut are like the bastard lovechild of Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson with awesome riffs and chaotic live shows"

Classic Rock Magazine

"Marks
the precise point in the Venn diagram where L7 meets I Wanna Be Your
Dog meets Courtney Love, which is equal parts terrifying and a cause for
long and rowdy celebration. Punk's not dead, pass it on.”

All girl London alt-rock band The Kut’s new single ‘Bad Man’ is the final single release from the band’s latest EP ‘Rock Paper Scissors’.
With gnarly grunge guitars, punk beats and gritty screams, it’s easy to
see why The Kut have been getting so much attention on the live
circuit. The song itself tells the story of a woman who re-lives a
series of flashbacks, causing her to create a cycle of revenge on a long
distant Bad Man. The single releases ahead of the band’s long awaited
debut album, marked for release later this year.

The
Kut are inspired by the likes of L7, Hole, Deftones, Incubus, Placebo
and Nirvana. Fronted by songstress and multi-instrumentalist Princess
Maha, the 'Rock Paper Scissors' EP is a quick follow up to 2014's 'Make
Up' EP, also produced by James LeRock Loughrey (Skindred, White Zombie,
Def Leppard). Voted into the winning spots in the MTV Brand New
Unsigned Poll for 2014, they've since gained a growing list of industry
supporters including Scuzz TV, Kerrang!, Kerrang! Radio, Metal Hammer, MTV-U USA, AXS USA, Big Cheese,
BBC Introducing, Planet Rock Radio, Jim Gellatly's New Music Showcase
and club supporters including Club NME and Medication. The band’s recent
video, 'I Don't Need Therapy' was premiered on Kerrang!, whilst
forthcoming single 'Bad Man' was added to the top track's feature for Q
Magazine and Classic Rock Magazine.

Their
live show is just as energetic, with the band voted in as one of the
two best acts to play the 'Dog's Bed Stage' after their set at Download
Festival 2015. 2015 also saw the band open the main stages of
Glastonbudget and Strummercamp and perform a steady stream of tour dates
and festivals. The recent 'Rock Paper Scissors' tour saw the band
perform 17 dates, beginning with a hometown show as support for Teenage
Bottlerocket at the Underworld. Previous shows include 2012 Olympics
and Paralympics, as selected by the Teenage Rampage Foundation. The
band have already been actively touring through 2016, including sets at
Camden Rocks Festival and Glastonbudget Festivals and now will head out
on a whopping 37 date UK July / August tour as below. Top this off with
some great feedback from rock legends Dave Navarro and Shirley Manson,
and now would be a good time to be checking out The Kut.
